Simultaneous access to high normalized current, pressure, density, and confinement in strongly-shaped diverted negative triangularity plasmas
C. Paz-Soldan, C. Chrystal, P. Lunia +12
Strongly-shaped diverted negative triangularity (NT) plasmas in the DIII-D tokamak demonstrate simultaneous access to high normalized current, pressure, density, and confinement. N…
Robust avoidance of edge-localized modes alongside gradient formation in the negative triangularity tokamak edge
A. O. Nelson, L. Schmitz, C. Paz-Soldan +7
In a series of high performance diverted discharges on DIII-D, we demonstrate that strong negative triangularity (NT) shaping robustly suppresses all edge-localized mode (ELM) acti…
Analysis of Alfven Eigenmode destabilization in DIII-D high poloidal discharges using a Landau closure model
J. Varela, D. A. Spong, L. Garcia +11
Alfven Eigenmodes are destabilized at the DIII-D pedestal during transient beta drops in high poloidal beta discharges with internal transport barriers (ITBs), driven by n=1 extern…
Avoiding Tokamak disruptions by applying static magnetic fields that align locked modes with stabilizing wave-driven currents
F. A. Volpe, A. Hyatt, R. J. La Haye +5
Non-rotating (`locked') magnetic islands often lead to complete losses of confinement in tokamak plasmas, called major disruptions. Here locked islands were suppressed for the firs…
